Q

What are the first four critical steps when a OIC receives a Abuse report?

A
  1. After receiving report, assess the situation for obvious safety issues including medical needs, signs of imminent danger, and the need for alternative housing.
  2. Address safety issues. Consider a military protection order or verbal order to the alleged offender, provide assistance in locating alternative housing, and coordinate efforts with law enforcement/CGIS. Note: it is normally inappropriate to issue orders to an active duty (AD) victim because of an incident.
  3. Report incident to the servicing FAS within one business day. Consult regarding safety issues and next steps in the assessment process.
  4. Contact Legal Counsel and CGIS. Obtain advice regarding disciplinary and investigatory issues, as needed.
